ABSTRACT

This paper explains how Japanese literature reflects or depicts the March 1st Movement through literary works in the 1920s. The results revealed that literary practice made everyday things extraordinary. This motifs suggest the possibility of playing a pioneering role in literature expressing “others” in the 1920s. In addition, Japanese literature sought new values from unusual literary expressions and materials related to realism. The heterogeneous elements of the “March 1st Movement” and Japanese literature met to create rare Japanese literature that showed empathy for others. It can be said that these attempts have led to expansion of creative materials beyond the regional boundaries of Japanese literature.
